Hello everyone, this is my first post to the forum. I've owned a C9 compensated version for about 4 years and just bought a JHP 45 a couple months ago. I enjoy my 45 so much that I rarely shoot my 1911 anymore. I've been impressed with Hi-points since I first shot my C9, and I finally bought a 995 the other day. I decided to repaint the stock right off since when I brought it home from the gunstore my wife said "is that new?". I took it to the range today and was just as impressed with it as I am with their pistols. I shot 2 boxes of white box thru it. It came with a scope, but I prefer the peep so I installed that from the start.

She sure loos and shoot great! What brand and color paint did you use to pain the stock?

 

[Guest]

Thanks! I painted it with Krylon Khaki camoflage with Fusion technology. Here is another shot of it.

 

[rzrbax]

Very nice work. That Fusion paint has really opened up the aftermarket paint options.

 

[Zer0DazE]

How far out where you shooting from?

The stock looks great.

 

[PrimalSeal]

Looking great dude! Nice shootin!

 

[Guest]

Thanks guys. The top 2 targets were 50', the middle was 40' and the bottom was 25'.

 

[Guest]

I will also note, these were all shot offhand. The initial site-in at 50' were braced 3 shot groups and were mostly all one large ragged hole. The carbine is definitely more accurate than I am. I'm very impressed with hi-point

That (by far) is the nicest original stock paintjob I have ever seen. Great job, man!

 

[Loopster]

Nice paint job and nice shooting!

 

[flyingbrickracing]

Ditto on Wiley,nicest paint I've seen on the Hi Point stock.I may have to pull mine out of storage and copy ya!Mine has the ATI on it now but I may have to switch!

Have you seen any paint scratching, etc. Is it durable?

 

[Guest]

so far so good. It seems pretty durable. I put that hogue grip sleeve on it less then 24hrs after painting and it stood up to that abuse just fine. Those take quite a bit of elbow grease to pull on and all was well. Don't get me wrong, I'm not going to go out of my way to see how durable it is.

That looks great....my wife painted something plastic with that type of paint and didn't have very good results. I hope it holds up better for you, could have just been what she was painting as well. Anyway looks great man.

 

[panamared1951]

eness76++What type weapon was the grip designed for that you used? Or, did you modify the grip?

 

[Guest]

The grip is a hogue slip-on. I use one on my jhp45 also. I paid 8.99 for it at my local gunship.

Gun looks good in that color...I too was thinking about that camo tan on my 995....That Krylon Fusion paint is sweet. There is no reason why you should have a crappy experience with it unless you didnt prep or clean the gun right. Ive used that stuff on all kinds of different things, from car parts to gun parts and never had a problem with it scratching, fading, or fish eye....

 

[Guest]

I'm so pleased with the way the 995 turned out, I'm going to apply some to my C9Comp as well. I'll post results when finished.

 

[68SSConvt]

That looks good! I like that two tone better than the stock stock.

 

[Guest]

I'm going to post this in the pistol forum as well, but since I mentioned it on this thread I'm going to post it here too. I finished the C9-Comp with the same paint. I only did the frame on this one.
